  I’d like to change the domain that is mapped to my blog to a new one I just purchased.

  Thanks for your help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  I can update your Domain Mapping upgrade if you’d like only the new domain to direct to your site. Please note that if you do this any links to your current domain livefitlivehappy.com that have been shared or posted in other places on the internet will stop working.

  If you’d like to keep both domains, you can add a Domain Mapping upgrade through Store > My Domains. Select Map a Domain Name You Already Own.

  Let me know if I can answer any other questions for you!

  Hi Shawna,

  If I did switch the domain mapped to by blog, couldn’t I forward livefitlivehappy.com to achievingfit.com and keep those links active?

  Thanks!

  Awesome! Then if you don’t mind could you help change the domain mapped to my blog to achievingfit.com?

  Whoops – I’ve already updated the name servers to point to WordPress.

  Alright! I’ve made that change for you! It looks like you had an email address forwarding through us for @livefitlivehappy.com, so this won’t work anymore.

  Let me know if I can help with anything else!

  Oh! I should mention, you may need to update your primary domain through Store > My Domains. :)
